The value of TSLA stock has little to do with fundamentals for many years now. It’s a cult of retail investors, “reputation” seems like a strong word to describe what they value.
Over the pandemic, I used this and OBS with a USB HDMI capture dongle attached to my Nintendo Switch to host Jackbox Party Pack nights with friends over Zoom. Such a great tool!

Let me explain how a _very_ basic setup works: you set up a firewall rules allowing only connection to VPN on all interfaces except your VPN interface.

If you're running a torrent box, then you can do whatever your OS equivalent of "this process uses this routing table". My seed box was using interfaces that were set up in dom0 and guests didn't even know about a ways to reach outside without a VPN connection being established by the host.

The point is - "such" attacks have no legs against anything beyond "OpenVPN: Getting Started" kind of server.
Unfortunately, several million people work in medical billing and insurance. No politician that is aiming to get re-elected wants to double the employment rate. It would cure inflation almost instantly though!
Heat pumps and air conditioners use a similar amount of power. Most states are at >90% air conditioner penetration.

It might be an issue if a large portion of them are using resistive backup heat, but AFAICT most people use fossil fuels for backup heat.
We can come up with compression schemes that do even better than Deflate. For example, here's the compressed version of the output of the first program, in just a handful of bytes:

#include ".//.//.//.//jeh.cpp"
#include "jeh.cpp"
You do not want to mix your non-anonymous and anonymous traffic over the same Tor connection, especially if you don't control the bridge (first hop) to which you're connecting.
> the researchers observed, for the first time, that it forms discrete energy bands called Landau levels

Isn't this huge news? Discrete energy levels for photons?
I don’t know if my understanding is correct but I always thought of a switch in contrast to a network hub. A hub broadcasts incoming packets to all its ports while a switch keeps a table and broadcasts only to the port that MAC is plugged into. That table is likely called a “routing table”, which probably drives some confusion. I always thought of a router as an internet connected switch. In addition, I always thought of a modem as something that can speak the language of the line (phone lines originally) instead of just the network protocol.

I’m not a network pro and these concepts could be totally wrong in my mind. Not sure why I’m spewing them out, other than to give myself something to solidify in the future.
If you held the stock for more than ten years, you are likely ahead because the stock doubled. If not, you still have money to pay your mortgage.

Most people pay extra to mortgage gradually. Until it is paid off, they face the same risk of foreclosure. What happens if you lose your job with one year left? You lose the house, you can't pay your bills cause banks won't give you home equity loan.

Liquidity is more important for most people than returns. Money saved in a house is a huge risk.
>> If you wouldn't sell your house for $1M, then it is worth $1M to you

(Sorry, deleted that phrase after getting distracted while making my comment. In my mind the edit was instant!)

> What a house is worth is what someone else will pay you for it. There is no intrinsic worth to it.

> People find out it is true when they try to sell something.

Of course there is intrinsic value. A buyer has to pay you what you want for your house.

You are setting the market price.

If someone wants it, thats what they will need to give you.

We often use the word “worth” to mean “what would be the best offer I might get. But you won’t sell it if it is “worth” more than that to you. Which “worth” is usually obvious from context.

Valuations happen on both sides of every trade, and most often both participants end up with surplus value. The seller getting more than their minimum price, the buyer paying less than their maximum price.

Even market makers commonly post prices with surplus relative to their neutral trade valuation, and typically move their price if their are no takers. They want a trade at X, but will try for as much surplus as they can before settling for X if they have to.

Another choice for cold climates is a cascading heat pump: 2 or 3 heat pumps in series, each with a different working fluid.
Hey, also a plant lover here. I also have experienced great frustration sourcing plants and pondered a similar platform. Haven't acted on it as too busy with existing projects. Issues not dealt with in your platform: plants with no known source should be hidden by default, shipping issues such as international and interstate restrictions on mailing plant material should be recognised, time and cost should be respected including currency exchange rates, and the options of growing from seed or spore should be in-scope.

If you want to grow it, my suggestion would be to use a social model, so allow people to store information about their own garden and then share a feed of events like "I planted this!" or "This flowered!" or "This reproduced!" or "I collected seeds!" to draw people to your platform. Sharing material and the use of endemic plants should be encouraged where possible, not just outright commercialism.

The gold standard today for accessible all-species info at the global level is iNaturalist (pulls in nice maps plus taxonomy plus Wikipedia, though unfortunately does not really delineate in the map between nominal natural range and current range). Not sure how you do it now but frankly it would be somewhat superfluous to attempt to reproduce such information independently, for example by maintaining your own image database.

Other things that can draw people to a site would include seasonally appropriate gardening tips (plant or fertilise or prune X now before Y season, check Z for A/B/C pest situation, clone P now, etc.), a relevant local events feed (which opens up potential travel revenue streams such as hotels, flights, group tours, etc.), and academic and publishing news in related areas.

Many of the nurseries have problems maintaining up to date stock lists. To commercialise, it may be useful to help them do so. To motivate them to get on the platform, you could for example allow parties to sign up for future purchases of crops not yet matured but with an estimate readiness date, thereby assisting the grower with cashflow and sales pipelining.
Sadly the case in a lot of places is the difference is control over your environment, or simply stability. In a lot of places your rights as a renter are so bad you can basically do nothing to improve the place you live, and even if you were allowed you would be foolish to do so because then your landlord could just kick you out or hike up the rent (and might just do that anyway). (where I live even multi-year tenants are frequently forbidden from putting up pictures on the walls, let alone repainting them, FFS). In places with proper rental rights, rent vs buy is a lot less clear-cut, especially if prices don't have much room to go up any further (buying only looks like a non-brainer financially in the past decade's environment of extreme price increases, or if you fail to consider opportunity costs. Even if you can afford to buy a house, it's not necessarily the best use of your money, but the non-financial side can be a really big part of why people go for it anyway).
I own a Model 3 Performance that I bought in 2019. I think it's a great car. Would I buy another Tesla? No. Would I buy another EV? Absolutely, as long as it uses NACS.

My reasons have nothing to do with recalls. tbh, I think the worry about recalls is blown way out of proportion by the media. One of the recent recalls was because some of the icons were deemed to be too small. I absolutely rolled my eyes at how much of a media frenzy there was over it, but "TESLA RECALLS 3 MILLION VEHICLES" makes for great headlines, I guess.

My issue with Tesla, and why I wouldn't buy another, is two-fold: First, they have a very poor reputation for build quality and then follow it up with bad service. My car has been rock solid, but I recognize other people have not been so lucky, and getting Tesla service to fix their car can be like pulling teeth. Second, I don't like the direction they've gone with some design. Eliminating stalks in favor of using the touch screen or touch-buttons on the steering wheel is just terrible design.

My wife owns a CRV and wants a Model Y. If she actually decides to buy a new car, I'll probably push her towards a Honda Prologue.
Here is the full text of the ceasefire proposal as accepted by Hamas:

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/5/6/text-of-the-ceasefir...

I don’t think Netanyahu on his own is able to reject this deal and invade Rafah. Especially with protests in both Israel as well as the USA, and with USA having set a red line here.

No, I think it is wildly simplistic to blame this on him, and there is a deep understanding inside the entire Israeli leadership that the genocide continues, no matter the cost. The Israeli public may not agree with it, however from what I see in the protests, there is very little talk—if any—of the lives of Palestinians. So it doesn’t really seem that Palestinian lives matter as much as the hostages for the Israeli public at large.

If e.g. Benny Gantz were to become the Prime Minister, there is little evidence he would behave any differently, this is for example how he is reacting to Hamas’ accepting of the ceasefire deal:

> “Every decision will be brought before the war cabinet—there will be no political considerations”

> “The military action in Rafah is also an inseparable part of our continued efforts and commitment to return our hostages and change the security reality in the south.”

https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/389518

There are not many—if any—political regimes plausible in Israel at the moment who do not take a very hawkish and a criminal approach in denying Palestinians their states. The political reality is that without an intifada, there will be no political avenue for Palestine to gain their freedom from oppression.
This also works where police abandoned the victims. They feel they'll have no recourse if scammer escalates and becomes violent, so they rationalise that giving in to the scam will be cheaper and less stressful than going to the police and potentially putting their life at risk.
I wonder what Lisa tells the shareholders & board when they ask why billions fly past their noses in valuation. Curious why ATI/AMD never could be on par to Nvidia regarding the software stack (drivers mainly), I would assume bad leadership and goals.
I bought a used Tesla before things got crazy during the pandemic, and for a while there was certain my next car would again be a Tesla.

Lately though, despite knowing it's not 100% rational, I simply can't. If Musk were out of the picture, maybe I'd be a customer again, but because he's involved, I won't even entertain it. Again, not 100% rational. Real, non-Musk people bust ass there and made a car I really enjoy owning and using daily.

But there's a non zero chance that Musk fully loses his marbles, takes Tesla private, and bricks everyone's Teslas overnight over some petty slight to his ego. Likely, I doubt it. Possible? Yes.
They’re referring to me by first name (rather than my handle) and suggesting I kill myself.

I have never previously had such a comment on HN in the last 16 years.
The United States has no prior speech restrictions, only limitations on the use of finite public spaces (town squares, broadcast spectrum), and restrictions based in the illegal origin of certain materials (CSAM). Libel laws are not restraints on speech, they're an avenue for torts arising from harms proven after they occurred. Specifically, the restraints the US does not have are called prior restraints. There are no banned media outlets or silenced individuals, which would be prior (before the fact) restraints on speech.

Great job. What about a dichotomous key (DK) for search as well as filters? Let's say you know quite a few attributes but not the name, you should be able to use a DK to home in on the plant. I note you are a data scientist so you'll know how best to mine the data to make that work. You will need quite a lot more attributes but those might be bought in from elsewhere.
> Absolutely, as long as it uses NACS.

What are your thoughts on the mass layoffs of the entirety of the Tesla Supercharging team?

It looks like the writing is on the wall for the NACS charger, at least its biggest deployment of superchargers across the USA (Tesla's network).
I don't. I just use Node.js on the back end.

Also, I appreciate the ability to reuse code between the front end and back end. It's not a silver bullet and shouldn't be overused (not a fan of Server Side Rendering) but it's great for utility functions. It's a huge advantage to know that certain functions behave exactly the same in all environments.
The OS needs an extra feature, and then clients need to make use of that feature. There's other workarounds listed in the "Mitigations" section of the post. But the problem is basically that everything is working as intended, for example if you disable the "Option 121" feature then under certain circumstances you might not have internet connection. Apparently Android devices don't support Option 121 at all, and it makes them unaffected by this vulnerability, but also causes to sometimes not be able to connect to networks.
I don't think most people at Google are doing fake work. I think upper management keeps canceling projects and throwing work away.
Let's be honest, there're 2 OSs on desktop that matter to VPN providers that provide "all-in-one app" - Windows and macOS. Both have easy to configure from your application.

On linux, well, you have to choose:

- use iptables style rules regardless of the backend

or

- use nftables style rules regardless of the backend.

So it's 3 firewalls that you have to think about.

On mobile, well, on mobile you're mostly at the mercy of the platform owner and generally can't do much. Hence, why connecting phone to "SoftAP/ether_g + VPN" device is better than a direct connection.
Hell yeah, this is really cool.

Haven't used it, but one thought that came to mind, would be to allow binding key presses to specific cards.

e.g. Hold my mouse button on a card, hit the "k" key, and now "k" will returned to that bookmarked card.

Demo solves the representation of a call tree in a really useful manner, the other thing to solve is the quick navigation within the call tree when reasoning about behavior. Would love to be able to simply bind bookmarks, and quickly flip back and forth between them. Perhaps holding Shift-k in the above context would temporarily "float" that bookmarked card next to my current card, so I can kind of temp pull in that context.
It lets you use the audio output of one program as the audio input of another program in arbitrary ways. A handy tool for live media like streaming- maybe I want my game and music to be streamed, but not my notifications or my A/V tech's voice in my ear. For audio production you can also wire the output of one music creation tool into the input of another.

This is also challengeable: while it is true that in a crash, a bollard will heighten the risks for a motorist,

we have to consider that bollards look dangerous to motorists. Thus they tend to drive slower and more carefully around them. That leads to lower risk of crashes.

So all in all, we would need more info to actually argue whether they represent more or fewer risks for motorists

Japanese and Chinese cuisine is often characterised by a split between home style and restaurant style cooking.

If you buy a recipe book or watch a cooking show from Japan or in China, you will see many recipes that are probably unrecognisable to westerners who did not grow up in an Asian household.

The split is mostly some ideology that certain foods are not worth the effort to recreate at home.

A lot of it is tool and stove constraints in a home kitchen versus restaurant kitchen (for example some fried noodle recipes require a hot stove).

The other is a belief that some skill is involved. Such as nigiri is not something made in a Japanese home, but eaten at a restaurant by a professional chef. To try at home would be a waste of ingredients, and a hubris of skill.

Great idea, and I was excited to try it (and even pay for it!) until the requirement to sign up and the hijacked back button. Also, in my Firefox, your white box as a background appears transparent and so your text is just on top of a _very_ noisy background.

On the missing Terms of Service, you have the Data Use notice, but it essentially describes how you're using our email, not any code that we would need to upload to you. In the day and age where we're having daily discussions on copyright violations and people hoovering up any data or analysis they can find, I definitely want a sturdy legal agreement in place before I ship IP off to someone's systems.

Seconding other comments about having it run as a local program in some way, I have a lot of different tools that I use in my IDE to explore codebases, utilize LSPs, etc. One of the big ones is how I utilize semantic color coding (https://medium.com/@evnbr/coding-in-color-3a6db2743a1e) to quickly parse function / variable names, and usually a standalone app gives me a lot more ability to control things like that. Having it local (and not communicating remotely) means that I _also_ don't have to worry about you hoovering up my codebase.

Otherwise, excited to see someone implement an idea like this! I can be very visual with certain kinds of diagrams and code bases and was unhappy with how few tools I felt visualized those organizations well.

Are you implying that the environmental and political fallout from electric cars is somehow worse? Or just that electric cars are not 100% cost-free?

Everyone here knows that creating an electric car requires emissions; but over its lifetime it's a great improvement over a gas-burning car.
At that point, Israel had already imposed sanctions: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4729000.stm

But also, that Ynet article is just stenography for the IDF! The only sources are IDF officers and the Israeli defense minister. Why would anyone believe this is not just manufacturing a pretext for escalation?
LSP and treesitter are cool and we might use them when adding more languages eventually. From my understanding though treesitter does parsing only and it would take a bunch of work to do the semantic analysis clang already does. Plus clang is an industry tried compiler that we know can handle a lot of the rough edge cases of C and C++. LSP is closer to our use case but I think still not close enough. It took a lot of work to get the right points to cut the code at and when talking to clang directly, at least we can inspect things at a decently low level.

Having worked as a frontend web developer, I can assure you that the back-button hijacking is sheer incompetence of the developers. They have to be mutating your browser history in a careless way to achieve this. That or they somehow picked a really bad client-side routing library.

Mobile is an exception (but they already state android is immune), let's stick to desktop for the sake of discussion, the 3 major desktop platforms: mac, win, linux :)

On mac - just implement a block everything rule with pf and then just allow traffic on the tunnel and whitelist the VPN endpoint. Boom, a kill switch that defends against this exploit. And there's no racey nordvpn-style "control channel" (if nord really works like this i have an even lower opinion of them than i do currently).

On linux - iptables (for example) - just implement a general DROP policy then override with a specific ALLOW on the tunnel interface.

On Windows - Use WFP to implement a block everything rule, then provide a higher priority rule to allow on the tunnel interface.

All three of these techniques are the recommended way to implement a kill switch and it's used heavily in the VPN industry by anyone sensible. It completely defends against this TunnelVision exploit too.

The way that you suggest kill switch is implemented (reactive and monitoring the connection?) is very fragile, racey and prone to leak, i absolutely would not trust it and it shouldn't even be called a kill switch. It's an embarrassment. :)
